| Notes | |||||||
| Both Athlone and Mullingar are over-subscribed at Clerical Officer level, so the numbers shown are made up of those applicants with a sufficiently high priority under CAF protocols to be accommodated within these decentralisations. | |||||||
| In addition to the grades shown in tabular form, there are 8 people in service grades (Service Officer/Cleaner) awaiting relocation, 6 of whom are assigned to decentralising posts at present. There are 7 people in professional/technical grades (Inspector/Statistician) awaiting relocation. | |||||||
| Many of those applicants who have accepted offers to decentralise but who have not been assigned to a decentralising post to date are either based outside of Dublin, or are unavailable for assignment at present for a variety of reasons. Assignments to decentralising posts are being made on an on-going basis wherever this is possible. | |||||||
| Offers will be made shortly to a number of recent CAF applicants. |
